LAN issues with 3g/ps3

[Darren1610]

Can anybody help?

I have a HP620 laptop running windows 7 pro that I am connecting to my ps3 with a network cable and making use of my 3g modem to access online gaming?

Everything was working fine and all of a sudden it just stopped without me touching or adjusting any settings. I am able to connect using my wifes laptop which is running XP so there is definitely no issue with the 3g, cable or ps3.

A few things I have noted but am unsure on how to fix or whether they are correct:

• The LAN is a public network which seems to be a problem however I am not sure if it always was.
• The LAN in network and sharing centre is showing as an "Unidentified network" with "no network access"
• IPv4 and IPv6 is showing as "not connected"
• When I diagnose the LAN an error is showing "Local Area Network does not have a valid IP configuration"
• I have shared the 3g internet connection to the LAN
• I have set IPv4 to obtain IP adresses automatically
• The LAN is enabled
• I have tried everything I have found on PS3/Windows forums but to no avail.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Open your browser and type 10.0.0.138 into the address bar. this will bring up a window asking for a username/password..type admin into both...
this will take you into your nextg settings.
click 850 only and user name /pw for your account click save and then connect
